Care Guide
- Light: Bright to medium indirect light. Tolerates lower light better than most aroids, but grows fastest in bright indirect conditions.
- Water: Water when the top 1–2 inches of soil are dry. Avoid letting it sit in water — good drainage is key.
- Humidity: Prefers 50–70% humidity but adapts well to average household humidity levels.
- Temperature: 65–85°F (18–29°C). Keep away from cold windows, drafts, and A/C vents.
- Soil: Rich, well-draining aroid mix (perlite, coco coir, compost).
- Fertilizer: Balanced liquid fertilizer every 2–4 weeks during spring and summer.
- Potting: Repot every 1–2 years. Self-heading habit means no staking required.
Arrives in a 4" pot. A low-fuss, high-impact plant perfect for collectors and beginners alike.
